However, I really don't want to see a local school, with a generation of happy children be trashed and lose it's reputation which could quickly lead to a reverse of everything that HAS been achieved, because of a war of nerves on the internet. So until the new facts we are awaiting are published, I'll leave well alone, I think.

It takes guts to be a whistleblower. One of my dh's friends was a whistleblower (not in education). He lost his job, lived in stress for several years and happily was finally vindicated in court. No one would want to put themselves through that unless they are totally convinced that it is the right and honourable thing to do.

well it just depends. What is considered a working day by Ofsted? It may be after the New Year, at the same time as the GCSE results are also published. Which as you know will be the first staff and parents see of the results.
